From the Governor’s Office:
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced on Wednesday, November 25, that for the first time in more than 15 years, the Gowanus Expressway and Hugh L. Carey Tunnel HOV lanes will be open for the morning commute the day after Thanksgiving, Friday, November 27th. Higher traffic volume is expected due to a favorable weather forecast and an improving economy.
“Opening this HOV lane on Friday will allow for a smoother trip for travelers and commuters alike during this busy travel time,” said Cuomo. “This is one more way we are seeking to put Drivers First and make travel quicker and more convenient this Thanksgiving weekend.”
